Cooke lens back in production!

[mark e mark]

Folks I have just noticed that Cooke plan to produce their 2 large format lens again:) I think they are the only UK lens manufacturer left. I have no connection with Cooke what- so-ever, but fell happy that there is some good news in the Large Format world.
See
www.cookeoptics.com/cooke.nsf/products/xva.html
and www.cookeoptics.com/cooke.nsf/products/largeformat.html

What that doesn't tell you is there are other lenses being considered a an XVa for 5x4.

There's a couple of threads already, and dealers are taking deposits. Interestingly the line on the website is aimed at the US market, calling Autumn - Fall :D
